About this title

Synopsis

As an assistant to Sinnoh's resident Pokémon Professor, Mitsumi tirelessly cycles for an errand when she witnesses a peculiar sight—a horde of Eipam joined by a boy, Hareta, wearing nothing but shorts! Having the ability to develop special bonds with Pokémon ever since he was an infant, Hareta has lived with the creatures by the forest all his life, and as a result, knows little to nothing about human society. When Doctor Nanakamado asks him if he would like to meet a god-like Pokémon called Dialga, Hareta enthusiastically accepts, setting out on his quest with Mitsumi and the prideful Water-type Pokémon Piplup by his side. However, Hareta and Mitsumi soon learn during their Gym Badge-collecting travels that they are not the only ones who wish to meet the Legendary Temporal Pokémon. A mysterious group called Ginga-dan has been doing horrible things to both humans and Pokémon, and the mastermind behind their agenda is a fearsome leader who threatens to seize Dialga's temporal powers all for himself.

Piplup is a light-blue, penguin-like Pokémon, which is covered in thick down to insulate against the cold. It has a dark blue head with a primarily white face and a short, yellow beak. The dark blue feathers on its head extend down its back and around its neck, which causes it to appear to be wearing a cape. There are two white ovals on its chest and a small, light-blue marking resembles a crown above its beak. It has flipper-like arms and yellow feet with three toes each. Piplup has a strong sense of self-pride. Because of its pride, it has a hard time accepting food from humans and bonding with its caretakers. It will even puff out its chest after it falls down, which it often does due to its poor walking abilities. However, it is a skilled swimmer that can dive for over ten minutes in order to hunt. It has also been shown to fly short distances in the animated series. It lives along the seashore in colder climates. It has been recently seen living in the Terarium of Blueberry Academy. Evolution Piplup evolves into , which evolves into . (Source: Bulbapedia)

Hareta is the main character from the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Advnture manga. Hareta is the adopted grandson of Professor Rowan. His clothes indicate that he is based on Lucas, however his hairstyle is vastly different and his vest lacks the white stripe that appears on that of Lucas. When Hareta was a small child, he was left in the custody of Professor Rowan by his father, Kaisei. While doing his studies, Rowan realized that the child had the extraordinary ability to befriend almost any Pokémon he encounters and thus decided that it would be a good idea to let young Hareta live on Route 201 with the wild Pokémon that live there. Because of his living with Pokémon most of his life, Hareta is unfamiliar with technology and is prone to being very curious of places like cities or even confusing things as food. He also has the tendency to forget people's names. (Source: Bulbapedia, edited) No voice actors have been added to this character.

Shinx is a quadrupedal, feline Pokémon resembling a lion cub or lynx kitten. Its front half is light blue, while the rear is black. There is a short tuft of fur on its head and smaller tufts on each cheek. The top tuft is smaller on the female Shinx. It has large, oval ears with yellow, star-shaped markings on the insides; yellow eyes; and a tiny, red nose. Whenever its mouth is open, small fangs can be seen in its upper jaw. A black marking encircles Shinx's neck like a collar, and there are yellow bands above its forepaws. The hind paws are black on the male Shinx and blue on the female. Spiked fur surrounds the base of its long tail, which is tipped with a yellow star shape. Electricity is produced by the extension and contraction of muscles in Shinx's forelegs, which causes this Pokémon's fur to glow. If it senses danger, its fur can gleam brightly to blind predators so it can flee. Excited trembling is a sign that Shinx is generating tremendous amounts of electricity. It can send signals to other Shinx by shining the tip of its tail and shaking it. It has an aggressive nature; thus, taming a Shinx is said to take great patience. As mentioned in Pokémon Sleep, Shinx can create electricity when it rolls around while asleep. On rare occasions, a sleeping Shinx releases discharge sparks. Evolution Shinx evolves into Luxio, which evolves into Luxray. (Source: Bulbapedia)
